Awards:
2010-2014 Cole Scholar at CSU Long Beach
Graduauted Cum Laude from CSULB
Overview:
I am an inspired and hard-working instructor that strives to give his students the best education possible. I graduated from the Bob Cole Conservatory of Music in Fall 2013 where I was a member of the top performing groups such as the Concert Jazz Orchestra and Pacific Standard Time. In my studies I have had the experience to play and learn from world class musicians and teachers. As a teacher I have worked with countless students at all levels of experience and cater my lessons to what the student wants to get out of learning music.
EXPERIENCE
I have been teaching lessons in my private studio and at studios in the LA area for the last 7 years. Through my experience I have learned how to make lessons fun and engaging for my students. I also have experience preparing students for recitals and coaching them on various aspects of live performance such as stage presence and stage fright. From a four year old that can't speak english to students much older than myself, I have seen it all! I'm always eager to take on new challenges and to share my love of music with the world.
METHODS USED
In my lessons I use snare drum method books such as Mitchell Peters Intermediate Book or Stick Control by George Stone to teach reading and basic hand technique. Once I feel the student is proficient in reading and technique I move on to drumset coordination books as well as learning drum parts to the students favorite music. I also teach techniques for xylophone, tympani and other classical percussion instruments. I have an extensive library of music books and techniques so if one method doesn't work I have no problem customizing my lesson plan to fit the student's need.
LESSON STYLE
In my teaching I make sure that my students never feel overwhelmed or confused by the material. I give them reasonable assignments based on their skill level and make sure to give them reasons for everything they are doing. I always try to help my students achieve little accomplishments in every lesson. I find this helps to prevent students from becoming discouraged or disengaged. I am always adjusting my lessons to fit the personality of the student I am working with. I always try to keep my lessons fun and engaging!
